| Shlomi Aber is such a ing prat. "Warehouse"? Could he cram in any more tech haus trendster terms if he tried? I remember reading some interview with him where he did the standard retconning of his childhood tastes to say he really loved jazz growing up, and when the interviewer asked who he listened to he said something like "No particular jazz artists. Just jazzy house." Dip. |

I'd like to see a dj/producer interview where the person just admits to listening to whatever the and then picking up production in their early 30's, turning out to be pretty good at it. I think thats the more realistic take rather than acting like they were playing guitar in the womb. |

I think this is pretty much what happened with Guy Gerber. He played soccer/football for a while and then got into the techno scene. |

| By the way, wasn't Shlomi Aber the blackface guy? That was a pretty classic thread. |

I found the quote:
| quote: | I was intrigued in reading our bio that you list jazz as a big influence, because I can't say that I've heard it come out much in your music so far.
I was never really a big original jazz fan, but I was always into jazzy house and techno, when it would influence dance music. |
And yeah, Shlomi Aber was the source of the black face thread. I don't think he was actually blacking up to appear more authentic (which sounds even more ludicrous now then it did at the time) but I do think anyone who names his album Chicago Days, Detroit Nights, or whatever the it was, is a massive throbbing end.

I read an interview with Sasha where he gave this, more honest answer (and this was back in '99, before every dip and his dog was an upcoming tech haus sensation):
| quote: | "I always read interviews where people say the first record they bought was 'Planet Rock'. Like it was," he smirks.
Your first purchase?
"Some heavy metal by Rainbow. Or was it The Boomtown Rats?" |

| Yeah, I just checked discogs, it's called Chicago Days / Detroit Nights. Listening to some of samples now, it's actually surprisingly decent as far as rather basic deep/tech house goes. That said, the album title and cliche samples (let's just sample some random black guy talking, that'll give my track plenty of authenticity...) are pretty laughable obviously. |
